Further development of the Assisting Hand Assessment (AHA)
About this project
Project information
The Assisting Hand Assessment (AHA) is an assessment instrument with the purpose to measure and describe how effectively children with a unilateral impariment in arm and hand use their affected hand in bimanual activities. Within this project the AHA was recently validated in a new version (AHA 5.0) and the age span extended to 18 months to 18 years for children and youth with unilateral cerebral palsy. During 2016-22 the AHA 5.0 will be validated for children and youth with unilateral plexus palsy.
